Ok, so was a part of a business years ago that is no longer in business. tax returns were only filed a for a few years but none after that.

You usually need to file a final business tax return(s) to the IRS/ your state appropriate to your type of business and pay all outstanding taxes and fees.I assume that your biz is sole proprietorship, then, even I f your biz is no longer operating, you still need to file all required tax returns for your biz by the due dates. As a sole proprietor, you may deduct any loss, I mean NOL, your biz incurs by reporting your losses on your biz returns.
